So the Ruta has started. I was invited by Denise to the Rustic Cafe where the Mayor and other town hall officials were due to kick off the event at 7pm. However they were in a meeting which was running late, eventually 3 of them turned up but without Mr Mayor. I felt sorry for Denise because none of the local press turned up with the exception of Andrew Ede for the TOTN (nice to see you again Andrew), i was introduced to the deputy mayor and 2 councelors, they were very friendly and the youngest guy (nice looking and spoke some English) asked me if i recognised him, he said he remembered me and hubby. It turned out he is one of the sons of the man we used to rent our holiday apartment from. Small world isn't it .
We decided to move on to the next bar as the time was getting on. We only visited 3 bars but the atmosphere in the Port was quite buzzy with lots of people (mostly residents) in small groups moving from bar to bar. Everyone i spoke to were impressed with this new venture and i think it will good for the Port, please support it when you come out. Here is a photo of me with Denise.

Good to see you and Colin yesterday evening, Lyn. Looks as though the Spanish press took themselves off to Arta's tapas opening night. Oh well ...

Hope this is a success into the future. It deserves to be.

As Sparky says it was a truly fantastic evening with an excellent turn out and a wonderful atmosphere. I managed to visit 6 of the bars and enjoyed the evening immensely. Its a great opportunity to try out different bars which is exactly what we did. Wish the glasses of wine were smaller though...... never thought I would say that!!
I really hope everyone continues to support this. Not many bars gave us the questionnaire though.

In homour of La Ruta de Tapeo in Puerto Pollensa we made our own tapas at home. We made Tumbet, Patatas Bravas, Stuffed Aubergines, a vegetable omelette and for dessert, Flans. This was consumed with Tio Pepe followed by sone Compo Viejo, then a small glass of Moscatel.

Snap! Last night I made our favourite tapas : chorizo,cumin,red onions, broad beans garlic and sundried toms with veggie tartlets red onion,manchengo,mixed pepers on puff pastry. No spanish drink as given it up for Lent. Ok -but have done it for more years than I can remember. My mother inlaw, who was tt, persuded me and although then I only ever drank the odd G&T at parties I still do it. I now drink wine mostly. It doesn't actually bother me. I know it was a couple of days late but had a busy and difficult week so it was good to relax and after a fabulous day here ( it another already beginning) with up to 20' at times it was almost ( well not quite but it was lovely ) like PP - well a girls can dream?

Looking forward to the real thing in July.
Just realised we have lost an hour... Woops must change the clocks
Hasta luego mis amigos

I don't know if they were hiding them but i had to ask for the questionaire in one bar, it's a sheet of A4 paper on which there are about 16 questionaires printed. To be honest i would prefer it if they cut them up into individual slips and had a box to put them in, as it is now, everyone can see how the others have voted. I have sent a message to the organiser about it.
To be fair to them though it was the first night and so it's been a bit of a learning curve for all of them, i'm sure they will iron out any hiccups pretty quickly .

Have just had a reply and she says the bars should have cut the sheets into slips and they are supposed to have a bowl or something to put completed slip in.
Also, there is a meeting tonight and she will pass on all the comments that she has received.
